First thing I do in the morning
Last thing I do at night
I think about my baby
And everything's all right

I take a short walk around the ceiling
Helps to lay the scene
I take a short walk around the ceiling
And then I settle down to my Ovaltine

First thing I do in the morning etc.

I don't care what may happen
Here today and gone tomorrow
I don't care what may happen
What I can't steal
I sure can borrow

First thing I do in the morning etc.

I take a short walk around the ceiling
Helps to clear my mind
A short walk around the cieling
Always does the trick, I find

First thing etc.

I don't care what may happen etc.

First thing etc.
